Hey Divers
Just wanted to give you a quick report on what's been going on with our website. Jim, Colin and I are working on collecting information about this great state of ours and the awesome diving here. The site will be live very shortly and we need your help. What we would like to include is:
Your fav. dive shops Name, street address, phone number, website, driving directions.
Your favorite dive destinations this is mainly for beach and spring divers, don't feel excluded if you are a boat diver. Send driving directions, the area of the state you start from, and any other useful information, such as quarters for parking meters or entrance costs. Also if you can, describe how to get to the area. For instance if I were describing Hollywood Beach, I would tell explain this is a beach dive in the southeat, how to get to the beach from a major interstate, where to park, how far the walk is to the beach, facilities include public showers, a bathroom, and resturaunts, how far to swim out, when out there how to line up surface landmarks and identifying markers under water. (swim till the big palm is smack in the middle between the building and the lifeguard shack. Make sure you are past the bouy. Drop down and look for a huge rock pile that is located in an east west direction.) The more information you give us the easier it is for others to find it.
In the future I would also like to include personal stories that are diving related, either fiction or non fiction. The personal stories will be reviewed for content and rating (PG) before they are put up. Examples would be short stories of an awesome dive experience, or a ficticious story that you have been playing with, or a true story that changed your attitude about diving. [/I]NO previously published articles or copyrighted material.
Have fun!
